## Iconic Formula 1 team expands the scope of its technology partnership with Acronis, simplifying and fortifying its cyber protection

As one of the world’s leading Formula 1 teams, Williams Racing has been winning Grands Prix for more than four decades. Founded by Sir Frank Williams, Williams Racing first entered F1 in 1977. Since then, Williams has won 16 FIA Formula One World Championship titles, becoming the third most successful team on the grid. A few years ago, Williams entered into a technology partnership with Acronis to provide cyber protection for its infrastructure and simplify its security infrastructure. By leveraging Acronis Cyber Protect, Williams was able to reduce the time required to perform backups from days to minutes while simplifying its infrastructure and reducing needless complexity.
